The old man, who was originally planning to leave, stopped waiting when he heard his old friend say the word "ask". He sat down and wanted to listen to what his old friend wanted to ask Song Yun for.

"You said that as long as I can do it, I will never refuse." Song Yun stated.

Commander Xu was actually a little embarrassed because this matter was too personal.

"Look, you know what happened to Shuhua. She wants to divorce that bastard. Her mother and I support her and plan to have Xiao Liu accompany her back to Dongshi to handle the matter. But Xiao Liu is a man after all, so many things are inconvenient for him. My in-laws work in the county committee of a county town in Dongshi. His son also works in the county committee and has considerable influence in the local area. I'm afraid Shuhua will suffer if she breaks off relations with them."

Song Yunming was stunned. "You want me to go back to East City with Sister Shuhua and protect her closely?"

Commander Xu nodded. "Not only will you protect her, but you will also escort her back to South City. I'm worried about leaving them in East City any longer. Once the divorce procedures are completed, you will take them directly back to our military region. I'll find a way to transfer Shuhua's work. Return immediately after the divorce procedures are completed."

Although Commander Xu had not seen Song Yun's fighting ability with his own eyes, he knew from the battle records she had achieved during her two missions that she was very skilled. Shuhua also liked her, and he felt much more at ease with her by her side.

At least I don't have to worry about my daughter's safety.

Song Yun has always been grateful to Commander Xu. If it weren't for Commander Xu, her parents and the two elders Qi Mo would still be sleeping in the cowshed, and Ziyi would not have been able to enter the military district primary school. She kept all these in mind.

Now that she had the opportunity to repay Teacher Xu, she naturally would not refuse and immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll go and apply for leave tomorrow."

Commander Xu waved his hand. "No need to ask for leave. You already have seven days of leave. Seven days should be enough. If it's not enough, I will help you ask for leave from the medical team."

"Okay." Song Yun agreed readily.

Commander Xu was very happy and quickly took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Song Yun. "These are your living expenses and travel expenses. It's not much. If it's not enough, you must tell me."

Song Yun had no reason to refuse and accepted it calmly, "Okay, I will definitely not be polite to you."

Xu Shuhua was the happiest. With Song Yun accompanying her back to East City, she felt more confident.

The next morning, Qi Mo'nan ran excitedly to the family compound for breakfast, but found that Song Yun was not there. After asking, he learned that Song Yun had been sent by Commander Xu to do some private work. He immediately stopped eating and hurried to find Commander Xu.

Commander Xu lowered his head to write a report without even looking up. "You have other tasks to do. You don't need to get involved in this matter."

"I have seven days off." Qi Monan struggled.

Commander Xu, "You used it up in advance when you went to Heilongjiang last time."

Qi Monan: “…”

Song Yun and Xu Shuhua left Nanshi by the 7 a.m. train and arrived in Dongshi a day and a night later.

After arriving at Dongshi, we transferred to Lianhua County.
